The new treatment centre at the QMC provides a hugely improved patient environment. However, on this day the doctors in the clinic were evidently very busy because of the build up of patients at the reception area. I was fortunate to have a seat, but waited for well over 1 hour before I was called through to the doctor's room. The consultation session was excellent and provided me with much assurance.
I do understand that doctors are busy and that clinics can run late. However, had I been informed of the 1 hour delay at arrival, I could have waited elsewhere.
Could a system be introduced whereby patients are informed on arrival of possible delays?
